CRUZ (Liberto). GRAMÁTICA Histórica. Lisboa. 2007. - CRUZ (Liberto) GRAMÁTICA Histórica . Revista e aumentada. Prefácios de Haroldo de Campos e João Fernandes. Lisboa: Roma Editora, 2007. 140 pp.; 230 mm. (Colecção Casa de Cultura) Second and final edition, revised and expanded. *Gramática Histórica* was first published in Funchal in 1971, under the pseudonym Álvaro Neto – a work that sold out within a week, before the censors noticed its subversive nature. Composed between 1962 and 1966, it ironically revisits the categories of traditional normative grammar – Phonetics, Morphology, Syntax, Semantics – through the practices of visual and experimental poetry. This edition, with a preface by the Brazilian poet Haroldo de Campos and the critic João Fernandes, includes texts that could not be published in 1971. One of the most significant works of Portuguese experimentalism. Sought after. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
